Large vertebra

 I find lots of these and never know what kind of critter they came from.  Definitely fossilized

Someone better versed in mammals should be by to nail this one down but it looks like a large atlas vertebra from a bovid.. Bison perhaps ?  It was big .. whatever it was. Very cool, I'm assuming it is quite heavy if it is fossilized.

 

Cheers,

Brett

You found a lot of the same ones?

 None of the same ones, just lots of separate vertebra,  different sizes and shapes.

 I hope you guys don’t get tired of looking at my stuff! I’m going to be posting up a lot of my older finds that no one else has ever  looked at.  This is really the first time I have ever tried to get anything identified. I really appreciate your help this has already been very educational for me. Thanks

Keep'em coming buddy, every time something is posted to be identified it only helps others with things they may have found.

 OK mammal folks, I’ve been searching the web and came up with this. Looks like Mammoth. Did I answer my own question?
